Huge Lady is Alster Lake in Hamburg

We have seen some interesting monumental sculptures, such as this large, powered by the wind. Created this one, which is displayed here by Oliver Voss on the Alster Lake in Hamburg.

According to my source, he plunged into the Lake on August 3., and it rises four meters above the water surface. There is no permanent Edition to this body of water, as it will prevent that on the display to August 12.

The sculpture is called "Badenixe", what "bathing beauty" means. Another name is "Giant Mermaid", what "grand Mermaid" means. Clearly, it does not look like a traditional Mermaid, since it apparently no fish-tail. Unless this lady has some backwards arms, are these two lumps on their legs.

Apparently, this lady has caused a controversy because many interpret this lady as naked. I suppose that you could from what you see above the waterline, interpret, and want to ask a question, why someone put a huge skinny Dipper in this public attraction would.

I let you decide whether this sculpture value keep, and I did not, any plans, swimming to expand. There are more pictures see my source, and I will also let you decide whether it connects well in the environment such as the statue of liberty.
